WEEE!!!

Adulting is so over-rated, sometimes.
 
I just drove up to HobbyTown to spend some hard-earned money and they were CLOSED!!!
My hobbytown did me like that. They moved twice on me. The last time I heard the stock went back to the Carolinas and they closed down.

Just found out one of our friends which we haven't seen for a while, mother of two, has cancer throughout her body including in her bones. She has been fighting it since last Christmas but has just gone public. My wife is devastated.

Why a young mother???

They misdiagnosed my mom. When they finally said it it was in more rivs then not, skull, limbs, chest. Sorry to hear that. Buckle your seat belt. Makes the baja 1000 seem like a breeze. Check your pm.

Very sad news. :(
 
Why I love a disc copy that doesn't need to be online. Back in the day there was no such thing as a down game. 🫠
I do have the disk version of it. Actually most of my games are. They still need Wifi or for Xbox online to be working inorder to actually play it which is dumb
Maybe I can pull out the ole Wii. That don't need no internet lol
 
Your game system won't let you play a game that YOU own? Like you have a h`rd copy of the disc but it still requires internet?
Do all games that you own on disc still require internet or is this a special game? (Is there a NEED for this game to be online?)
